El Patron is a popular spot for delicious Mexican cuisine, known for its friendly atmosphere and quick service. The carne asada fries are highly recommended, and the El Patron Burrito is very solid, filled with plenty of marinated meat that is delicious. The tacos, including the carnitas and pescado options, are perfectly cooked and satisfying. The restaurant also offers a Chimichanga, where meat fillings are wrapped in a roll and deep-fried, providing tender meat inside. Some dishes like the breakfast burritos, such as OMG and veggie with added bacon, are pipping hot and full of flavor, making them a favorite for visitors. The staff, especially Adrien, provide excellent customer service by making sure each order is correct and guiding customers through the menu. Although seating is limited, the clean, friendly, and relaxed environment makes up for it, and the hard-working waiters keep the place neat. The menu features great salsa options and tasty desserts like flan and churros. Prices are reasonable, and the food is served quickly, making it a good choice for both locals and visitors looking for a quick, satisfying meal. However, quality can vary depending on whether the owner is present, as some recent experiences have noted inconsistencies in food quality when the owner is not there to oversee the kitchen.
